Abstrakt: The amount of periodontal attachment around the tooth is an important prognostic factor for dental treatment planning. The aim of this study is to estimate the quantity of remaining of attachment area of a tooth affected with periodontitis. A generalized linear model was fitted to data from mandibular pre-molar teeth scanned a high-resolution micro-CT system. The model obtained allows to estimate the actual periodontal attachment form root length and clinical attachment loss. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
